#FreeRayshawn

Was good but could have been better. There is not a single white person in the show who supports blacks and all whites were cruel. It could have been little better but other than that, it was good to watch it.

Great show. Very well excecuted. Fast start, good action with interesting characters. So far the best show I saw on Quibi.

First I'll say that Seith Mann is a genius Director. But it's interesting that white men (the writer is white - big mistake) can only imagine a world where Black men lose everything and are always somewhat guilty. Black victims of police malevolence are innocent full stop. The whiteness of the writer shows.

As usual the actors were phenomenal with what little they were given. Laurence Fishburne is a national treasure. Stephan James is amazing. Jasmine Cephas Jones equally amazing. The little boy - beautiful and heartbreaking. The writing just sucked. They all deserved better.

I can't wait to see real Black liberation on screen. Now that will be epic... and it is coming

This was pitched to me as pro BLM but after watching it, whether intentional or not, illustrates how quick people are to jump to conclusions and how social media capitalizes on it. It also hammers some facts of life that people haven't been paying attention to lately. This would be awesome to show in a classroom to dissect and discuss. If you an adrenaline junkie and just like to be entertained I can recommend a dozen or so movies with the same basic plot you'll like better. If you like movies that challenge a narrative or morality then I would say this is absolutely one to watch. However I will add the caveat that its power in this regard is tied to current events and may lose some zest as it ages. They cite a few 'facts' along the way that compels me to add one as well. The creation of SWAT was the state response to the Watts riots in the 60's. Just FYI for those who think rioting is the way to 'demilitarize' the police.

Jumped into Quibi last night. Some shows I didn't finish, some I finished to give it a fair shake. This was the first show that I couldn't turn off. Only knock is the acting isn't great at times.
